lighting 

I need to replace all the cabin lights/fixtures on my 36XL/kcb and am thinking 
of a white/red combo LED for all 0r some of them. 

 

I mostly race her so the lights don't get used very often. I want to get 
something that is relatively inexpensive, will not

rust/tarnish (forget about the traditional brass stuff) and most importantly 
will work reliably after long periods of no use.

They probably will be powered by the house 12V--I tried battery operated (in 
the housing) and these were a total waste of money

since the batteries corroded faster than they lost their charge!

 

I am talking about forward and aft cabin lights (~ 6 total) which mount to the 
ceiling with built in switches for on-off and white/red. 

The housings on these will be exposed--visible so that 'ribbon' type LEDs are 
out.

 

In the main cabin, I need 4 that will be mounted under the 'shelves' and thus 
the housings are not important. I also need 2 that

would be mounted in the forward cabin corners for reading and 2 in the 
'ceiling', all of which would be exposed so the housing is important. 

 

I thought I might go with one source for consistency and maybe save some money. 

 

I am looking for suggestions from the list before I decide.

 

Thanks in advance,
